We have a farmers market here in the summer. And i am so lucky because my sister-in-law has 2 great big green houses where she grows tomatoes and cucumbers. She also grows okra and squash out side. I get most of my produce free and now i have all kins of relishes, salsa, tomatoes put up for winter. But i also grow a couple of tomatoe plants and a couple of jalanpano plants at the house. and then i also grow japanise cucumbers that we eat all the time. They don't can right but boy they are sure good. We also have a distribution center here where trucks meet and trade vegs. to be taken to other cities and what is left we get to buy real cheap instead of going to our local grocery store. Avacados are my favorite. We get them for 60 cents and they were large. I froze alot of them for winter. Hum Hum good.
